THE LEFT LANE
The art of thanks

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Artists 11 and younger: What are you thankful for? Picture it for us, using colors, paint or colored pencils on plain white paper, and we'll feature three of the pictures on Thanksgiving Day.

Ready, set, color! The pictures need to reach us by Nov. 25, whether by mail — send to Island Life, The Advertiser, P.O. Box 3110, Honolulu, HI 96813 — or dropped off at 605 Kapi'olani Blvd. Parents: include your names and daytime phone number with the picture; we'll want a quote.


See you at Sea Life

Sea Life Park is asking island folks to come out and keep the fishes company during the road closing that has cut into the park's business. And park officials are offering a kama'aina rate as incentive: $9.99 for adults; $4.99 for children ages 4-12. Information: 259-7933.

Kalaniana'ole Highway is closed in the daytime for work on the cliff above Makapu'u, so during those hours you must reach Sea Life Park from Waimanalo. The park is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily with shows, school tours and such continuing as usual. The road closing is to continue through Nov. 27.


Pali on the rise

Pali, a fast-ascending recording group, is climbing the mountain of best sellers nationally; the duo's "For You" single last week was No. 1 on MP3.com's Adult Contemporary section, and No. 20 in the overall Top 40 round-up.

"It was a surreal moment ... at first, we couldn't believe it," said Pali Tuan W. Ka'aihue, half of the duo.

Kevin Kashiwai, the other member, said "all the glory goes to my Lord, Jesus Christ."

The pair says "For You," a ballad with acoustic guitar backing, is their favorite song off their self-titled debut CD.


Say goodbye, Martha

The PT Cruiser is out, and the Mini is in. Say yes to embroidery and no to metal studs. DEP, creator of America's first hair gel, has seen polyester and patent leather come and go. Twice. For more than 50 years, DEP has combed the runways and the streets for style predictions. Here's what makes this year's pop-culture list:

Out: "Sex and the City." Martha Stewart. Sky-high stilettos. Golf. Suede fringe belts. Anna Kournikova.

In: "Gilmore Girls." Todd Oldham. Ballet slippers. Fencing. Man's ties used as belts. Anna Nicole Smith.
